"Mixed Feelings about Overthorpe"

I've had a bit of a mixed experience with Overthorpe CofE Academy. The staff are lovely and the facilities are great, but I feel that the school could do more to engage with parents. My child is happy, but I've had some issues with communication and keeping up-to-date with what's going on.
